It will be good to see the back of Douglas Ross, he never has anything good to say about Scotland.
the blues bar down street from bettys
V.A.R and the Scottish public have made their decision on Dougie Ross....he is toast.
S Tories hate him now.
Naw!He,s PIE!
I'm not sure why the focus would be on Conservative support in Scotland? They haven't been a contender in Scotland for a long time. The story here is SNP loss, surely? Labour are winning by default throughout the whole of the UK because of the first past the post system.
That’s a no brainer Professor Tim.
Labour majority it will be.
Take a bow Sir Keir Starmer.
Probably more likely to take a knee along with the ginger growler.
It’s the same as in American and France. There’s no one that excites the voter.
Like having to choose what you can stomach instead of what really want to eat.
Well said
The reason through history there has been a change in economic model every 40 or so years.
The petrodollar model has been going since the early 70's, it is tired. The few individuals who have gained have been so successful they wont let go.
The populace wants change, they are forced to tyranny.
Professor go camping for 3 or 4 days and he will return back to a new era lead by the Labor Party. As a result you will relief that many Tories MPs will be gone ,many into obsurity .
I think you have the Scottish perspective wrong. We have always been a protest vote since New Labour moved to the centre. In England the electorate was wrong about Brexit, wrong about the Tories. In Scotland the Indy vote seems like the more correct choice in 2014, the Nation was right about Brexit and right about the Tories. In England there may be apathy because the electorate was wrong but in Scotland the Indy movement has been right. Some misguided non thinkers may vote Labour this time but I think you will be surprised at the size of the Indy vote. The only place I hear positive news about Labour is on the BBC. No one who has spent any time in Scotland keeping up with current events or reflecting over the last ten years will vote
For a Union party. Alba has much to say but it is not their turn yet
snp have damaged the indy cause alot of snp voters i know of are seeking other indy parties, mostly lookin to alba from what i can tell my mate and myself included. i think you might underestimatin how bad the snp have royal screwed up, between embezzlement scandal corporate homicde scandal, covid cover up stuff, the carehome scandal the damage to the nhs, the cuttin fundin to education, apparently our education is worse than 3rd world countries now, hundreds of teachers out the job, the attack on tourism, sinkin the economy, the ferry scandal, lowered the life expectancy of scots the constant hike in taxes alot of folk will vote labour
Still voting SNP. Red Tories/Blue Tories all the same.
The scottish vote for a westmonster seat is quite pointless, for towards democracy as scots are outnumbered and have no say whatsoever in westmonster.
The real votes will be in the holyrood elections in 2026, when the independence parties will be out in numbers.
Westmonster is no friend to Scotland and never have.
Labour were the ppls choice before the snp and gave Scotland NOTHING.
And labour in Scotland again in a centre right party will give Scotland nothing again but plundering, just like wilson and blairites.
Just like the GB energy joke...its just more plundering of scotlands assets.
And anyone who thinks different is kidding themselves.
I think “The Scottish Vote” is a bit like “The Scottish Play” - bad luck if you mention it, at least for the Tories and possibly for the others too.
Lol
Do not 'want' something
The others find 'unwanted'
Or you might find yourself 'Wanting'
To swap your kingdom for a horse
TBF a lot of the seats the Tories have lost over the years in Scotland have been as a result of boundary changes. Where rural seats have been merged into towns and cities, but since the times of Thatcher it's been perceived by those in Scotland that the way they vote doesn't matter. As the way people vote in the south of England is ultimately what decides elections.
Going to be a really interesting election night ! The Tories will be gone and no Brexit apologists in government.
ye never know if you get someone in there to manage things right brexit might work out eventually problem with brexit was crappy negotiating and management not brexit itself plus on top of that we have covid and whole country was shut down for 2 year that we havent bounced back from neither which destroyed many a businesses and such its self so how can we for sure say brexit was bad when had covid on top of it?? hope no one expected over night success with brexit thats illogical :S also on the other side every where else in the world is in the same boat on top of a few wars that moneys gettin spent on
The SNP can lose 20 seats and still have a majority. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
I have from the start said this is a Retribution Election. Retribution for all the lies that have been told.
If any population is alive to the possibilities of tactical voting, it’s the Scots. I live just south of the constituency you speak of, with our eldest daughter living there. The vastness of the tactical voting campaign has reached the ears and eyes of everyone up here. And it has provided voters with a rational response to the corruption of both the Tories AND the SNP. Where the Tories are not an issue in Scotland, the SNP is far more vulnerable to Labour. But on the east coast, where the Tories have done pretty well, traditionally, people have never had a stronger reason to vote for the leading opponent, SNP.
I have cast my tactical vote, against the Tories and for a party I do not believe in, but which I do believe will spend the next parliament cleaning out its stalls. They do have many excellent policies, but I am a unionist at heart. Could I be anything other, as an Englishman living in Scotland, with a Scottish wife? We have every reason to expect vast improvements in the probity of the SNP in the future as they have to accept that it is the stink of corruption that has done them the most harm of late.
Yet they remain the main opponent to beat the cons in my constituency.
might be suprised cause way snp have ran things people might tactically vote tories to get snp out, its bat sh*t crazy time just now lol
Aahhh, an English man living in the North East of Scotland. Well there's a surprise. And your comment wasn't the least bit patronising (and yes, I'm being sarcastic).
@@bigkdog5091 : I don’t see how my comment was the least bit patronising? Sure you’re not just projecting there, son?
@ashroskell Read it again. It's just the usual Gandalf telling the rest of the wizards about how the Hobbits he lives with are not simpletons after all, and they can even read, write, and use bog paper. I suppose you can't help it
@@bigkdog5091 : I see neither your, ahem . . . “point,” nor why you have such an unjustified sense of grievance against a total stranger about whom you, “know,” nothing? Your name suggests you’re a troll, or an algorithm, but I try to give the benefit where I can. Maybe take a chill pill with your next bottle of Gaffer Gamgee’s ale, while I light up a pipe of Old Toby and blow you some smoke rings, huh?

@@alisdairmclean8605lol
Indeed
you lot south of the border got it easy btw its left vs right, up here you get left v right, indy v union, indy right vs indy left brexit indy and pro eu indy its a fricken disaster up here lol
I think you are confusing the SNP with the independence movement. The reason SNP vote share will drop is because the SNP have done nothing about independence since the 2016 Brexit referendum despite making promise after promise. People in Scotland want and deserve the choice of their politics. The SNP have failed their supporters by kowtowing to the Tory's.
i mustve missed that
@@wullieg7269 clearly. Polls show possibly over 50% for Scottish independence yet only 30% for SNP. They are no longer one and the same.
.Alba dont have a candidate standing in the Moray east and Aberdeenshire north seat
The SNP vote is going down in this election because they are almost hated as much as the Tories. The SNP are almost as incompetent and corrupt as the Tories
Many people in Scotland (Inc myself) will be voting tactically to punish SNP
I'm not fundamentally against independence but the SNP have shown themselves to be a single issue party. If they can't govern devo then god help us if they had their hands on all of the levers of power
I also worry about the practicality of independence. The SNP wants to get in the EU (which I do) but what would the situation be if rUK was still out? We would then have a hard border between Scotland and England and England is our biggest trading partner
The SNPs stance on the nuclear deterrent also worries me as they would be quite happy doing a ROI and being neutral. That would play right into Putin's hands
The SNP and Reform seem like a couple of kids who don't want to share their sweets. In this world we have to work together not retreat into isolated pockets and wish that the world would go away.
On the other hand one could simplify your post by saying parties no not win elections but governments lose them.
If its a protest vote against all who r in power all over the country, who should people in wales vote for ?
LibDems
@stephfoxwell4620 polling in Wales is about 40 % for labour. Prior to watching this video, I watched a political ad on behalf of the Labour Party in Scotland, saying how badly the snp ran the health service, yet the Labour Party in Wales has did an arguably worse job, but that's politics I guess
Taking back Scotland is a significant step for labour .
its not really taking back scotland, we dont actually want labour its just we dont want the snp more, folk will vote labour in areas no matter if they are left or right leanin just to get snp out, its not bout choosin labour its rejecting snp, holyrood election in 2026 will be completely different state of affairs though, just from the folk i know of personally or been in conversation with theres alot of more conservative/right leaning folk that want to vote reform that will do that then but for now will just vote for whoever is like to take an snp seat
More like taking half the seats.
Labour better live up to their claims or they won't be there for long.
taking back is not a labour option
They are still in opposition in Holyrood and will remain so as it is hard to tell the difference between blue Tories and Red Tories in Scotland
Scotland is given far too much significance.
It represents fewer than 8% of seats and people.
Less than Yorkshire or the English Westcountry.
thats always been the issue for scots though, our votes are practically useless and effect nothin, for being 1 of the 4 countries in the so called union, another country ruling over and always the test subject for sh*ty policies we do not want by parties we do not vote for, its why the fight for indy in the first place. but snp have been nothing but back stabbin wa*kers and screwed us over royally they are equally as corrupt and every bit as bad as the tories that we havent voted for for 40 yeas and still get landed with tory governance might be to much significance to you with all the influence in power not to us who dont have it.
But supplies most money to the economy. The biggest contributions to the economy are Oil, gas, Whisky and Gin revenue. We sell you electricity and see all those inventions you claim are British, they are scottish. Tell me you
Racist prick, why do England keep 67% of scotrish revenue???? Cos we keep England you racist, ignorant prick. It's a country that's older than England, the Scots are indigenous, the english aren't.. You need a history and economics lesson 🤡
You are identifying why we need strong and resourced regional governments.
Too much significance. It's the second oldest country in the world and unlike the English , the celts are indigenous. We've been here thousands of years. The English didn't come here until the 5th century AD. And we supply more money to the economy than all the English regions combined you ignorant, racist clown. Why do you think k out of 500 English MPS in Westminster 100% are pro union. Because they know more than you do you racist prick.
@@andrewfrancis3591 Probably yes.
Don't worry.
Support for Independence is solid.
" Scottish independence " , never was the word , oxymoron more apt .
In Scotland it's not about the Conservatives it's about the SNP , 17 years and it's time for a change
Scotland wants Independence! 🏴
Saor Alba Gu Bráth
Not got a prayer.
in scotland its tactical votin to get snp out tories may very well get a few seats here and there, depends on areas it will be the one more likely to beat snp that will get voted for
Get the SNP out and get labour in? I'd rather have the SNP myself
@@davewright9313 aye well unfortunately no much of a choice eh lol
Douglas Who-Gives-A-Toss. The only light in the tunnel is on the Labour train, coming the other way... The SNP haven't got any trains, except massively overpriced ones. God rest their souls.
